Introduction

Ekorren - that's the european brown squirrel, scientifically sciurus vulgaris. Jumps around, collects variuos stuff, hides things and never finds all of it again.

I found the link to geohashing on some geocaching forum. Ok, I thought, so there's something even more crazy, so let's try it ;)

For a spontanous expedition bicycle will be the only reasonable mode of transport for me, so I'm somehow restricted to the nearer surroundings of my home coordinates which are roughly N 48°31' E 9°3', as well as weather-restricted. Though, the first geohash I visited was far away from home...
